See stop using that cheap disgusting vinyl siding. Ive seen homes where the sun alone has warped the vinyl siding. Yet designers continue to use it even on expensive homes. People stop choosing vinyl siding

Thank you for sharing this video.

Philippians 2:5-12 (NIV) In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death- even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Jesus loves you man, never loose hope in him! If you have any questions just reply and hopfully I can get back to you

Video still teaching these many years later. Thank you!

Excellent demonstration! Thanks!

How do you tell the difference between weep holes and failed clip joints in old masonry?

what kind of corny disinformation is here - some good points and some bad points - oxygen bleach may be the best option - sodium percarbonate

My guy look at the wall behind you lol is that a head of a brick 🧱 on the line what happen there

Ok, so how do you affix the steel lentil to the house… is it bolted to the framing… or does it just sit on the brick at each end?

Sometimes, it is time to change the way a person does things ,thank you for the info😎😎😎

This was helpful! Informative, concise, gives a reason "why" that's often omitted when sharing the standards of installation, and even entertaining! Thank you for putting this video together.

Masonry is certainly NOT my specialty, so I came to this site to see if the Brick Industry Association's "superb" master mason (Bryan Light) might be able to provide video tips on keeping a typical 1-inch wide air cavity behind brick veneer CLEAR of mortar droppings. In this video, Bryan in fact states "But imagine if you will, (paraphrasing) the volume of mortar droppings that will collect inside the back of this (air) cavity as this 2-story brick installation continues all the way to the top of the wall. There is no way to keep (this cavity) pristine. However, I submit that there is definitely a "tried and true" way to keep these droppings to a minimum and it does NOT involve mortar nets or filter fabric. Many years ago (circa 1995) I was an inspector in Canada for Ontario's New Home Warranty Program (now known as Tarion). I was on a track-built home site outside of Toronto watching with keen interest a highly experienced Italian immigrant masonry crew installing brick veneer on the front and side elevation of the home. They had just started their shift earlier that morning and were just getting ready at about the 2-foot mark to install their brick ties. I couldn't help but notice a length of heavy 1-inch thick hemp ship rope hanging out of each end of the length of brick that they were installing. As I walked up to the wall and looked down into the ventilation cavity, I could see that they had placed the rope snug to the base of the through-wall flashing and tight in behind the freshly placed brick (but you could also see mortar deposits that had dripped down on top of it). "What is the rope for?" I asked. "Watch!" replied the lead mason. And in an instant, he and his partner each grabbed an end of the rope and proceeded to walk towards each other pulling the rope taught. As they did this, the rope rose up within the ventilation cavity and literally wiped nearly every single mortar dropping that had fallen into the cavity out onto the ground below and even neatly wiped the mortar flat that had "squished" out of the back of the bricks.. "That is ingenious!" I yelled back. I was "gob-struck" at how inventive yet SIMPLE this trick was. Leave it to the OLD masters! If anyone reading this ever tries it, records it, and posts it to CZcams, I'd love to see it! ingenious

Just smear a Peanut Butter Sandwich on brick. Sprinkle some Lays potato Chips and 1 Pickle. Rinse with a Large glass of sweet tea. Now use your pressure washer, and your done.

our brick house has cracks in the mortar and the brick on the chimney is falling off. Any settling in foundation will cause brick to crack. Plus motar needs repointed or tuckpointed every 25 years or so. Very expensive to do.

Dont agree acid when used the corect way is the best cleaning job for brick stained with mortar

Around Pittsburgh 6:1:1 sharp sand N type is everywhere. Because the bag is already pre mixed 50:50 mix of lime and Portland, you would only add 3 parts sand.

I install these shelf angles in the Uk is this type of work common in the States ?

Just went looking at a new build and I wondered what these were.. I thought they looked horrible on the house . It was a Bloor Lawrence half rendered house ,the other homes didn’t look like had these

Hay a oi

What a horrible video

Why did you punch sarking without using any washers? Water goes in from holes?

Those bricks look great! Where can I get those? I'm in Seattle, and what I can get here locally is very poor quality (porous, soft, brittle)

This is stupid you never say what to use

Excellent presentation, quick, clear, consise.

Good job bonito trabajo

Is it necessary to use wall ties on a 6ft by 2ft brick columns

Looking for a Residential Brick Mason to build a set of Front Entrance Brick Steps to my 1968 Brick Ranch Style home with full basement here on East Side of Greater Atlanta. I've been told that the closest match to my 1968 brick is Old Waverly or similar. All old bricks to the steps deteriorated, and were completely removed. We learned that our 1968 built home did not have a Concrete Foundation & Footings for the steps, so we'll need that too... all New Construction, so the job is very straightforward. Looking for A Real Brick Mason who will give Estimate and Do a Detailed Itemized Contract for this project.

Is this a joke

Construction remodeling on my basement window sill ledge has a slant going down on the inside of the house... I was expecting it to be flat so I could put a plant on it... is slanting the ledge from the inside a thing?

My house is over 20 years old and I have three bay windows and NOT ONCE have we ever had a leak. Not once!

Very basic question here: who would be responsible for laying up that example mock-up? And do you craft the contract with the masonry firm to specify that if the finished work is not up to the standard of the example mock-up then the building owner or general contractor will reduce the final bill by X% percentage of the estimated total?

Wow, that really was an eye-opener. To the uninformed person this could look like a "nothing" issue. Thank you for taking us through the process to see how a pre-build issue that looks like nothing produces real and significantly bad results...for everyone, building owner and all the contractors who put their hands to it.

Please to all the masons out there, do not use the rake jointer any more!! I've been repointing whole brick houses because of it, although I'm sure if you fill your head joints properly you might never have a problem, but why risk it? just go with grapevine or concave! Even builders in my area are not using it anymore, I've seen whole walls teared down because of water problems, stay away from it!!

great video explainer what type is this video called 3d animation technical?

What about the rain carving into mortar joints over the years because the mortar mix was too weak? At this point I prefer to use a stronger mortar type to avoid this problem that It is happening alot by the way

Great information. Had my own Masonry company and we washed all our brickwork. If you don't know what your doing it can ruin a good brickjob

Weep holes under sill bricks and positioning of damp course flashing ..... at. 7:00

Bay and bow windows are very dated. They where ok in the 80s.

Thanks sir 🙏

Fantastic information. Now I can share this Video with my customers who have this issue.

I cannot find one video or detail regarding using limestone water tables and or window sills that would show the need for bond breakers.

Good luck cleaning a dirty cream without acid then you just use phosphoric to get rid of the burn if it burns not hard brick manufacturers will never live up to their warranty

Nothing will make it through.

I have never seen flashing or weep holes in residential brick homes in my area.

I could have used that tamping pad yesterday.

As someone from Europe I find it insane that US is still building wooden houses.

this man is golden. can't express my gratitude enough

Clear and great explanation, thanks. I'm doing a shed and this video is all I needed. Thanks again
